Lip Balms May Prevent Angular Cheilitis
Angular Cheilitis appears as red burning ulcers or cracks in the mouth corners (labial commissure). The painful, horrid-looking mouth corner splits are tormented and re-opened every time you eat, drink, talk, smile or laugh.
The sores at the angles of your mouth often bleed, crust-over, and sometimes even ooze pus. The condition is not life-threatening or even contagious, but it certainly can make your life a living hell.
Studies show that people having an iron deficiency, or those having vitamin B-2, B-6, and B-12 deficiencies are more likely to get Angular Cheilitis.
For that reason, if you already have Angular Cheilitis, you might consider taking vitamin supplements, and there is one online home remedy called the Cure For Angular Cheilitis that works overnight.
One major cause of start-up Angular Cheilitis is dry or parched lips, and, of course, the obvious way to keep your lips from becoming dry is to use a lip balm of some sort.
